In the wake of a controversial conviction of former President Donald Trump in a left-wing district, a massive surge of traffic overwhelmed WinRed, the GOP’s primary fundraising website. The incident occurred as Trump’s supporters flocked to the platform to demonstrate their solidarity and express their discontent with what they perceive as a “rigged” sham trial.
The conviction, which has been met with widespread skepticism and criticism from conservative circles, has further galvanized Trump’s base. Many supporters have taken to social media to denounce the trial as a politically motivated witch hunt aimed at undermining Trump’s influence and legacy.
WinRed just CRASHED because so many people are donating to Trump right now.
The Democrats have NO IDEA what they’ve just started.

WinRed’s technical difficulties underscore the immense support Trump continues to enjoy among his base, even after leaving office. The incident has also highlighted the ongoing divide between conservative and liberal factions within the country, with Trump’s supporters viewing the conviction as a clear example of the left’s attempts to silence dissenting voices.
Many have argued that the conviction is a blatant attempt to delegitimize Trump’s presidency and undermine his potential future political ambitions.
As the fallout from the conviction continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the incident will impact the broader political landscape and the future of the Republican Party. However, one thing is clear: Trump’s influence on the conservative movement remains as strong as ever, with his supporters showing no signs of backing down in their unwavering support for the former president.
